Oh man the motivation you are giving me to dump every dollar into my st😂, awesome build man👍

[@leviwheeler4114]

Same here

[@ILLSMOKQ-xs6qs]

Dude same I’ve had my st for like couple months and well I said I would keep it stock for a while but I already got a mishimoto intercooler ,bov,Cobb access port, intake,symposer delete pretty much next is bigger turbo with better fueling I want 400hp and 450-500 tq so hopefully I can hit that 🤙🏼

[@gladysgalaxy81]

We have a 2018 ST with all the upgrades. It’s such a fun car. We almost bought a Type R but it felt so much like a regular sedan. The ST has attitude.

[@commanderblood2147]

If i didnt have a house to renovate, I would put a lot more into my ST. That build is positively satisfying to hear and watch :)

[@WhiteblurrST]

Good stuff, i was 542whp last year on my 2.0 build. Finishing up my stroker build now.

[@mikhailSRT4]

man I'm a srt4 kind a guy, but after fixing a ton of wrecked ST and some had mods on them they sound really good and pull hard. easily my next car to build once the neon fever ends.

[@chrismaier4866]

I was the same way before I bought my st! They are a great car to transition to! Definitely a more comfy/reliable/luxury feel to them over the srt’s. Either way both a wicked cars.

Just saw your blazer shirt and I was like this guys local.! You’ll have to bring it by the station one shift and let me check it out.!

[@Bucephalus84]

What was the reason for buying another intercooler? With your setup either would have worked.

[@RobbieE56]

What video did you watch for the turbo install? I have my kit sitting here for a few months, and have been dragging my feet on getting it installed.

[@tclay1970]

400whp without port injection? (X) Doubt

[@danielelizondo5749]

I was thinking the same thing

[@TheAnderson-px9kk]

Can but 415 whp on mine required a 3 nozzle meth kit, NF race mix & a custom map....new stage 3 clutch, flywheel & lsd was the end result.

[@personaldeviant]

Man as a fellow stock st owner I would have loved more info like how much you spent on the build, what made you want to get all those suspension parts, and how satisfied are you with the build and driveability compared to stock

[@nogoodkd2185]

I’m stage 2 rn just got my intercooler in, and honestly if you’re gonna keep it as a daily I wouldn’t give in to the itch of modding it, but that being said it is way fun only thing that sucks is I spin a lot in 1st n 2nd if I just give it the gas

[@crazyfireboy123]

It’s expensive as fuck. More then 3k j for big turbo + you have to get a bov you can’t use a bpv, so piping for intercooler is 500 + the bov 300+ n then a tune it’s pricey

[@omerqawi9096]

Have you had any issues with the none keyed crack? I heard they like to jump time around the 400hp mark

[@Bobert984]

Why did you switch from the mishimoto intercooler to the cpe?

[@jcmercedes1691]

Fax

[@momynator3000]

Cpe keeps the charge air temps low 80s consistently the Mishimoto seemed like it was running hotter plus he went bigger turbo so more heat needed a better intercooler

[@Brandon-xe2se]

@@momynator3000 You need to be moving for them to do anything, mishimoto is just fine, my cpe rises all the time during stop and go traffic around 100° when I'm cruising high speed and stays ambient so does my buddies mishi

[@sleestack6455]

How much did all the upgrades cost?

[@danielelizondo5749]

Almost 10k for what it seems

[@LaughrieOnYT]

big turbo upgrade probably $2500, intercooler $800, intake $300, exhaust and down pipe $1300, and tuned $500. and other little miscellaneous things. probably in the ballpark of $5500

[@vastolorde2416]

What mad you switch from the mishimoto intercooler to the cpe

[@keithr5591]

I like the build... Nice touch on the parts. My only concern would be the life of your turbo. That sound is cool and all when you let off the throttle but that pressure build up needs to go somewhere. Keep building and enjoy bro

[@RolandKoller90]

That’s what the blow off installation was for though no? Blow off was installed on the black cold side of the intercooler.

[@blueeyeswhiteguy3399]

That's what blow off valves are for

[@keithr5591]

@@blueeyeswhiteguy3399 Yea, but if you're getting compressor surge (sound) that means your spring rate in the bov isn't the correct one for your vaccum levels at idle or high rpm deceleration. Which means the pressure waves are traveling back to the compressor wheel creating that sound, leading to your turbos life being lessened. That only means the spring rate is too high. Needs to be lower to be able to open when the throttle plate closes.

[@Trashmane_]

must resist urge to buy all the parts

[@dham99]

Funny, my 2016 ST is almost the exact build...I just bought the BNR3071 though which is the biggest difference in parts. I run the cPE lightweight FMIC, it makes a HUGE difference and is better than most FMIC's. Im curious if your CEL is from your cat-less DP...i have the CNT Racing cat-less dp and cat-back exhaust, but i never had a CEL on mine. Very cool build... still got it or did you sell?

[@jeffreysantino9100]

dhamm99 Hey buddy Nice car set up. Mine is just like your set up. How much horsepower does the car make with the BNR big turbo. let me know I ready to go big turbo and seeing what is out there. Thanks

[@reecejones1248]

you listed two different types of turbo which one is it lol

[@bohdankutiepov3870]

What exhaust and cat did you guys use for this project?

[@b3wavy573]

Is the focus st reliable? Thinking about buying one soon

[@causticwings77]

It is but you need to keep maintaining the car all the time. Change your oil every 3k miles and change spark plugs every 30k. I would also recommend walnut blasting the intake values every 30k as well. Otherwise I've had mine for 4 years and put 70k on it and other than what I listed above it needed a rear motor mount after I put any amount of power to it.

[@tymtrppr3]

tbh without Aux fuel you're definitely only looking at around 350hp, also not sure why you switched out the mishimoto intercooler, even if the CPE has a bigger core it wont make that much of a difference even on big turbo.

[@evancurole7120]

really tho i felt played because i got the mishimoto 😂. last steps for this guy is coils, aux fuel, and built motor.

[@justinposada6359]

Mannn i want a ST so badly

[@S3Magazine]

dooo eeeeet!

[@davidsmith5419]

Why did you switch intercoolers?

[@pawdre5151]

Mishimoto ain’t the best especially for BT. Should be a spreadsheet on a ST form for more info.

[@jessechilds216]

Hey bro your CEL is on, might wanna get that looked at. Lol jk. I like the build, I've got a 2013 Focus ST3 I'm gonna be putting money into, so far I've got the cobb turboback exhaust system and a turbosmart blowoff. Any recommendations on what to put money into next? I can't decide, my budget is 1000$ / 4 months

[@nordicwarrior9566]

Custom tune and FMIC will get you all the power you can get without going big turbo 👍🏻

[@Jackson99273]

Pause the music during exhaust clips lmao

[@brandonmarks6035]

Is that 2j intake or custom?

[@xpickleninjax6744]

how much horse power does it have

[@danielelizondo5749]

350whp -360 max. Block horsepower probably almost 400… needs an aux kit to make 400 whp

[@mrjari8664]

So you’re making 400… with no aux fuel?

[@lanedivine3706]

Kinda a long shot but is anyone running a garrett a/r 58 m24 bo I believe it’s the g30-770 series

[@IrishDude3699]

Great now I know I can drop turbo without engine. Thanks for ruining my daily lol

[@jonathanmendez4010]

How did you guys install it?

[@S3Magazine]

We didn't, this Focus ST was the development vehicle for 2J so they did the work while designing the intake.

Hey, great video. So i just bought a 2014 Ford Focus S for my first car. And i was wanting to do it it up. Is there any point of putting a Turbo in it? or should i just wait a few years and upgrade to the ST ?

Probably in your best interest to wait and actually buy an ST, you will save a ton of time/money/headache in the long run!
